Having problems with your Nikon Digital Cameras ?

I took photos on my camera and didnt realise the memory card wasnt in my camera. i need the photo's off the camera how do i do it?

Answers :

You didn't specify the model camera you have, so I can't give you specific instructions. Most Nikon CoolPix cameras have a "Copy" entry either in the Setup or Playback menus. Select that, and select the direction of the copy.

If you can't find it, please append a comment to this post stating the model camera and we'll go on from there.

Didnt realise I furst had to format the memory card for my new Nikon D60. Took lots of photos at the weekend but when I took out the card to download the images there was nothing on it.
However I can still view the images in the camera's display screen. I have loaded the disc that came with the camera on to my computer but have not as yet been able to work out how to download the pictures.
Bearing in mind the memory card was not formatted I just want to know if I will be able to download

In some cases we have found that if there is a virus on the card and if you try to read it directly on a computer having anti virus activated, the computer shows card as a blank. As the camera software is not effected by the window based virus, it ca ...

I bought this camera off of an realestate agent, she said it wasnt very old and that it worked great, it didnt have a memory card in it she said i would haft to get one. I have gotten 3 differnt ones and they all say it cant be read. I talked to a walmart associate and she thought I needed a 1 gb memory card for that camera so I got one off line and it still does the same thing. I put the same memory card in another camera and it works just fine. I have this nice camera and I cant even use it

I don't have a manual for this camera, and would like to print one off the internet. I took pictures and would like to print them with my HP Portable Photo Printer, but when I connect the camera to the printer, the printer can't read the stored memory of the camera to display the pictures so I can print them. This printer has no computer hooked to it, so I can't use special software with it. All my other cameras or photo memory cards can be read by this printer! I need the manual to read about t

Did you try going to the camera's web site, locating your camera model there, and then downloading the camera's manual that way? I have downloaded many full manuals for free this way. It's worth checking out. Chances are it will be there and free of ...

You probably didn't format the card in your new camera. This will completely erase it so you need to download the pictures to your computer first. You can use a card reader to accomplish this. They are inexpensive and very easy to use.\012 ...

I have a canon powershot sx200 IS and I recently went on vacation and took a lot of pictures using teh SD memory card provided with the camera. For some reason, after almost filling the card I received a memory card locked error. I checked the card, it was not locked. I even tried in another camera and same error. So I got a new SD card, took more photos and then all of those photos were erased. I could not find them when reviewing on the camera, another camera, or even with a USB card reader. A

The likely reason this keeps happening is that these cards weren't formatted in the camera when you first got them. However, don't do so just yet as formatting also erases the card. If you are using a memory card, take no more pics until you've reco ...

We own a Fuji Digital camerca model S700 and recently purchased a 1 gig memory card. We were taking photos on the weekend (photos which now can't be replaced) and we had a card error come up and the camera completely froze.
My husband took the camera back to Shopeers Drug Mart where we had originally purchased the camera and memory card and they suggested we contact you directly.
These photos which we took were of our Granddaughter and her Great Grandparents which are irreplaceable.

First do not panic! It is possible to recover your pictures if you take care. Take the card from the camera (powered off) and if it has a "write protect" tab then lock it now. Do not try and write anything to the card or you risk causing more problem ...

Missing photos Hi, IF photos were there and are not showing up, is there a way to look at the camera's internal memory in case they are still there? How do I switch between the camera internal memory and the memory card to find my missing photos? I took my first 6 photos. Went home, loaded the software on my laptop. All working fine. Before connecting the camera I successfully viewed the photos on the LCD and pushed a few camera buttons (not the trash can!) and could not find the photos. Is ther

I have a Kodak DX3900 camera from 1999 or so. I just took some photos that I need for work immediately. I've discovered that the memory card is crazy big and won't fit into any of the devices here at work, and the standard cords for USB we have don't fit either. How do I get photos off this thing???

Need to move images stored on the camera's memory to the SanDisk memory card instead.
I accidentally took pictures and forgot the insert the SanDisk memory card. The images are saved but now I don't have anyway to download them onto my computer. I don't have a cable that connects the camera to my computer... just a SanDisk reader so I have to get the images to the memory card. Is there a way to do this on the camera itself?

When I view my photos I have already taken they look good until I try to zoom in, then the photos go fuzzy in multiple color stripes taking over the screen. Will my photos be fine when I load them to my computer? Is this my camera or my memory card. I put someone else's memory car in my camera and could zoom in and it was fine. I put mine back in my camera, took two pictures, and could zoom in on those photos and it was fine, but not on the previous pictures I have taken. I did plug my camera

Fuzzy pictures are most often caused by not holding the camera steady enough it's the number one problem with shooting "Live View". It's not the camera nor the memory card it's the person that's taking the picture. Sorry if that was to blunt. Now say ...

I've been using this camera for just over 2 years now with the same 1GB SD memory card. but just a week ago at my high school graduation party and ceremony, I've taken a decent amount of pictures(maybe about 30 or so) and I know that isn't much for a 1GB SD card. I had some other photos and videos recorded on this card which are important to me.

My 4GB Gigaware SDHC memory card won't work on my camera. It used to work but then I tried it recently then the camera just takes out the lens and freezes. My other memory card works so it has to be the memory card. Can I do anything to fix it? If I can keep the photos in it I would prefer that but if it needs to be erased it is fine. I tried to access and format it on my computer but neither works. I can't access it at all.

I have a Brand new camera, the cannon SD880.. I just got back from vacation and as I opened my camera it said memory card error, I then clicked the button to view my pictures and it said memory card us locked. ( It was unlocked though) I took the memory card out and it was unlocked... I tried downloading them onto my computer and It read no photos. I am very worried that they are gone, which would make no sense, is their anyway to fix this? how can I recover this problem
thanks

Help, I took about 80 pictures on my olympus sp-350 camera, an xd card was in it. Took my camera out the following night and half way through it seemed as if the camera switched to taking pics on the card/ internal memory (not sure which!) because I could only view the last ones taken and not those before. I have been onto photo rescue and that only recovered the ones that were on the card. I pray to God I haven't erased them they were taken on a special holiday in fRANCE! PLEASE help

Camera automatically asks to format or turn off. I just bought the XD memory card to use in my camera (OLYMPUS 550 UZ). I had the camera power on and proceeded to put the memory card in while the device was still on. After this, it keeps asking if would like to power off or format. I have photos I took on the memory so I do not want to format it right now.

Never insert or remove a card while the camera is on. You can try to download the pics on the card to your computer using a separate card reader. Then, format the card in the camera. ...
